Vistagen (NASDAQ: VTGN) announced topline results from the PALISADE-3 Phase 3 public speaking challenge study of intranasal fasedienol for acute social anxiety disorder.
The study did not meet its primary endpoint: least squares mean change in SUDS was 13.6 (±1.54 SE) for fasedienol vs 14.0 (±1.51 SE) for placebo, a LS mean difference of 0.4 (p = not significant). There were no treatment differences on secondary endpoints. Safety and tolerability were reported as favorable and consistent with prior trials. Management said it will review results with the FDA, evaluate program impact, and has implemented company-wide cash preservation measures intended to provide runway into 2027.

Vistagen (Nasdaq: VTGN) presented exploratory data at The Menopause Society 2025 Annual Meeting showing that intranasal PH80 produced rapid-onset effects on autonomic biomarkers of vasomotor symptoms without systemic absorption.

These studies, conducted 1995–2000 and sponsored by Pherin Pharmaceuticals (now a Vistagen subsidiary), support a proposed non-hormonal, non-systemic, rapidly acting mechanism for treating menopausal hot flashes; posters are available on the company publications page.
